Abhishek Bachchan calls Ayushmann ‘Nautanki Saala’

Abhishek Bachchan along with Ayushmann Khurrana and Kunal Roy Kapoor shot for the title track of Rohan Sippy’s NAUTANKI SAALA yesterday.

In the song, AB will be seen addressing Ayushmann as ‘Nautanki Saala’ just as Amitabh Bachchan had in Ramesh Sippy’s cult classic Sholay. Remember when Amitabh Bachchan called Dharmendra nautanki saala in the iconic drunk scene on water tank? Says an eyewitness, “Abhishek called Ayushman ‘Nautanki Saala’ in the song. This brought back memories of his father, Amitabh mouthing the same lines in Rohan’s father Ramesh Sippy’s Sholay.”

About Abhishek’s appearance in the song Sippy said, “He is my good-luck charm.”

Starring Ayushmann Khurrana, Kunal Roy Kapoor and newcomer Evelyn Sharma, the film is reportedly a remake of the fabulous French romance Apres Vous! About the film, Ayushman said, “It’s a buddy film and focuses on the male-bonding between Kunal and me. The film is a quirky love triangle. I am also lending my voice for one of the songs. I am excited to associate myself with Rohan Sippy because they are behind some of the major hits of the industry.”
